I have an Async File Uploader control inside a Repeater which is inside an update panel. Now,I am uploading the file into ftp,so I am not uploading the video file,using SaveAs() method. For uploading the file in ftp,I have this UploadFile method which takes these four parameter:FileName, UploadPath, FTPUser, FTPPassword.Now this FileName,I have to send the full file path. My UploadComplete event looks like this:
<pre lang="cs">protected void AsyncVideoUpload_UploadedComplete(object sender, AjaxControlToolkit.AsyncFileUploadEventArgs e)
{//VideoPath is a session variable
VideoPath = string.Empty;
if (AsyncVideoUpload.HasFile)
{
// string filepath = AsyncVideoUpload.PostedFile.FileName;
string filepath = e.filename;//above two captures only the file name,but I want the total path,like c:/MyDocuments/...
UploadFile(filepath, "ftp://172.20.117.102","test","Value*12");
VideoPath = AsyncVideoUpload.PostedFile.FileName;
}
}</pre>
How to get the full path of the file that is selected using the fileuploader.
View 1 RepliesI wrote some code to upload files to amazon S3, if I put a full file path manually It successfully uploads the file from my computer. What I'm trying to do is use a file upload control and store the full path in a variable so that I can use it for my amazon method. Ive read everywhere it seems that the browser won't let you get the full file path for security reasons.
How can I get the full file path? Should I just store the files on my webserver and point my amazon method to the server path, and then use the file upload control to tell it what the filename is?

View 5 Replies am a newbie to programming so please bare with me!I introduced a file upload control on one of my pages. There is a button click event for the upload which triggers not only the upload but also an insert into a table in my database.Every aspect of the button click event for this upload is working as expected; however I do have a couple of queries because the results are not quite as I would like them. I am using asp.net 3.5 and C# in code behind page.
I have a simple table with 3 columns in my database: Username, PhotoTitle and PhotoUrl. In the button click event I grab the PhotoUrl like such -string photoUrl = FileUpload1.PostedFile.Filename; (I am using the photo url from my images folder in the application to show photos in Gridviews etc. I prefer this to storing the actual image in the database for the moment until i am a bit more experienced since i don't know much about varbinary dbtype.). When the button is clicked for the upload, the details of the photo are saved in the database table, but it's the full path of the file on my laptop which is store (C:/Documents/.../filename.jpg) opposed to "Filename.jpg" for example, which i obviously would prefer because in the application photos are displayed using the"~/images/Filename.jpg" path. How can I save the file name with the extension alone in my table (without the full path)?
The second problem is basically regarding the actual photos being uploaded. They are"saved as" inside folder for the solution as anticipated, but only on the laptop harddrive, which means that I have to manually drag each photo uploaded into the images folder within Solution Explorer, from a Windows Explorer window, in order to be able to display them in Gridviews etc (with the "~/images/Filename.jpg" call in the .aspx code). This is not acceptable of course since the site users would expect to see their photo after the upload, and they would not be able to drag the file into the ~/images/ folder. How can I get round this second slight problem; i.e. is there a way to upload photos directly in the folder so that they show directly on the solution explorer?I hope my explanations of those two little problems I have didn't confuse you all?
how can i get full path of picture by file upload in client machine
View 2 RepliesI am trying to write a page to read the Excel file provided by the user. I know I can't use the FileUpload to get the full path of the file from the client PC. This give me the problem when I write the connection string for the Excel file:
[Code]....
Without the full path, I can't replace the Data Source by a variable and I definitely can't assume all users will have their Excel files named Book1.xls located in C:Doc all the time.
I am using HTML file control and HTML image control in .aspx page (for uploading image and showing on web page). It is working fine. But I am unable to get that uploaded image file path and file name in .aspx.cs page. And also tell me how to save selected image in MS ACCESS database.
I am using HTML Input control that will open a file dialog window where user can select a file.
Is there a way to set a path from where to open the window. Right now it looks like the default folder is "My Documents".
I need it to point to something like "ftpexternalftp$Data"
I am using a fileupload control to display the contents of a text file in a textbox..if i use this
<asp:FileUpload ID="txtBoxInput" runat="server" Text="Browse" />
string FilePath = txtBoxInput.PostedFile.FileName;
it will get only the file name like bala.txt.i need like this D:New Folderala.txt
Instead of fileupload control i have used textbox to get the path like this D:New Folderala.txt
<asp:TextBox ID="txtBoxInput" runat="server" Width="451px"></asp:TextBox>
string FilePath = txtBoxInput.Text;
But i need browse button instead of textbox to get the path..
EDIT:My button click event
protected void buttonDisplay_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string FilePath = txtBoxInput.PostedFile.FileName;
if (File.Exists(FilePath))
{
StreamReader testTxt = new StreamReader(FilePath);
string allRead = testTxt.ReadToEnd();
testTxt.Close();
}
}
The requirement is that the whole original file path be saved to the database; for example: L:folder1folder2xyz.doc. However; the FileName property of the FileUpload control will only give "xyz.doc". We are interested in obtaining the full path only and really not interested in using the control to do any upload.
Is there any way to get the full path? We would like our user to be able to browse to the target file instead typing into a textbox because the folder name could be very long and several levels deep in our organization.
how to get full path from fileupload control in asp.net ?
Or is there any other way to get the file name in asp .net?
I'm working on an ASP.NET web application for our corporate intranet users. I have a form where a user should provide a path to the file on the local network (something like "localServersomeFoldersomeFile.ext") without uploading the actual file. The issue is that users don't want to type the whole file path and want to use some kind of visual browse dialog.
The standard HTML <input type=file> element allows to browse for a file, but most of the browsers (except for IE) don't allow to access file's full path, so I think it should be done by some external component like Silverlight, Flash, Java applet etc. I tried to do it with Silverlight, but I'm getting a SecurityException when trying to access file's full path using Silverlight's OpenFileDialog class. This java applet [URL] seems to do something similar to what I'm looking for, but it's focused on uploading files - I only need to be able to get file's full path and pass it to the server as a string.

I have a situation where I want a user to select a file, then select an option from a DropDownList. When they select an item from the DropDownList I do an auto post back and do some stuff with the file, but this causes the path to clear out. Is there some way that I can keep the path from clearing out?
